Yeah, check out the Great Lakes forum. It's their traditional all Toyota show, in July rather than September this year.

 

Another old-fart / dork with a wishlist!

Spoiler
Springs(TRD, TEIN, GOLDLINE?)
Header (DC- Stainless)
Window vents
Better interior Lighting!
etc,etc,etc...

 

if having a checklist makes u a dork, then ALL xB owners are dorks. because we all want to make some mod or another to our boxes. and, after attending my first meet this past weekend, my list has grown

 

My "checklist:"

2005 BCP xB - will be ready next month (purchasing used from a dealer friend for an absolutely smokin price!)
15" Black Racing Pro N1 wheels (gunmetal w/polished lip) - already purchased
205/55/15 Falken Ziex 512 tires - ordering next month
Tein S-tech springs - ordering next month
OTG spacer shims - ordering next month
Front bB emblem - ordering next month
Boomerang armrest - ordering next month
Alarm - already purchased, awaiting install next month
Tint front windows - next month
OEM foglights & spoiler - ordering within 2 months
I've also got a bunch of audio gear from an old set-up. Not sure if I'll use it or not.

 

checklists are awesome...they help you manage your money for priority mods.

My upcoming mods :

150whp - most important
2 12" MTX 9500
Apexi Catback Exhaust
Carbon Fiber Hood and Fenders
Garson Geraid Kit
Cusco Vacanza Coilovers
new wheels - possibly some 18" a/x

 

not odd at all. when i bought the xb, i made an excel spreadsheet with my 'staged' mods. i'm such a nerd!

 

I think everyone has their own "checklist". Makes it easier to plan things and check what you can afford and when you can afford it. I just need to decide whether Im doing my interior or exterior first.

 

yeah i don't think anyone doesn't have a checklist. some are just more organized than others. of course i ain't one of those organized ones. plus if i had it written down and the wifey seen how much more things going in oh boy, big trouble. lol. just wish things from japan would come in a little bit faster. so now i'm spending all my exterior money on interior mods.

 

my list is long... but the important ones are done... i got the EVO 2 exhauste, security alarm, fog lights, and the Ro_Ja wheels are on this saturday... my month and a half old XB is looking nice...

 

i feel so much closer to my scion bretheren.

your only as dorky as you feel my checklist is in my pocket
protector and i discuss mods with fellow chess club peeps!!

i think we like to be called scion geeks!

 

I have had to subdivide my list. 1. Personally engineered items (homemade) 2. Manufactured-expensive 3. Manufactured-not expensive. Look forward to working on accomplishing any of them.

 

Dork #543 signing in....................On my check list I even run a blue high-lighter through all the things I've done or ordered. The list is so long, I don't want to keep reading the same things over and over.................................!!!!!

 

yup.. i guess a list is normal. i don't even have my xB yet and i already have a list of items to get. it's a common thing.. it helps keep you in perspective of things.

 

I've got 2 spreadsheets going one that I know I can afford to get in the short term eg. muffler, wheels. and one long term dreaming eg blitz s/c, fab body kit...
